        Your team in Shanghai or Shenzhen decides; your team in New York signs the lease. Rules change from state to state, and some states limit leases and property ownership for foreign-owned companies. Both teams see the same dashboard, in Chinese or English, with those risks flagged before anyone signs.

          The math on waiting

          One month of waiting costs more than a restaurant opening and a full year with Odelia.

          Without Odelia

          $15,000a monthRent with no sales, for every month a permit runs late. The example store waited 8 months.

          With Odelia

          $8,288A restaurant opening filed and tracked to approval ($6,500), plus its first year on Essentials ($1,788).

          More plansA one-time entry plan, Pro for stores inspected often, new store openings and headquarters.

          $149 per location a month, billed yearly, or $299 on Pro for stores inspected often. Headquarters signs once, and each franchisee pays for its own stores.

          Each plan includes a monthly Odelia allowance for its locations, twice as much on Pro; $49 packs add $25 more and carry over. Inspections and rush filings are quoted per step, importers per product line. Attorneys and customs brokers bill you directly. Government fees go directly to each agency.
